I Choose

     Look at me I'm fallin'
     Off of a cliff now
     I can still hear my mama yelling No No No
     But the words mean nothing
     Can't catch up to me now
     And the view is so beautiful
     All the way down
     When I was a little boy
     Suckin' juice from a bottle
     Believing my perceptions were oh so real
     But I don't know nothing
     Still knowing nothing
     Was just enough for me to know the way I feel
     This is life
     What a fucked up thing we do
     What a nightmare come true
     Or a playground if we choose
     And I choose

     Look at me I'm swollen
     Like a banana fish now
     I'm never gonna make it out of my hole
     But I keep on laughing
     Doesn't really matter
     There's dozens of reasons for explaining my soul
     When I was a teenager
     Suckin' booze with the Vatos
     Discussing who was gonna live to be 21
     They said they wouldn't make it
     They didn't make it
     We're all naked when the day is said and done
     This is life
     What a fucked up thing we do
     What a nightmare come true
     Or a playground if we choose
     And I choose

     Don't know who made this all come true
     But now while you're here
     You just gotta do what you gotta do
     Now if I wasn't such a weenie
     Do you think you'd still love me
     Pretending I'm an airplane on the living room floor
     But like a lovely generator
     You stand right by me
     And if words were wisdom I'd be talking
     Even more
     So I keep on falling
     As I'm looking back above me
     Watching as my mama just becomes a little dot
     Now I'm like Deniro
     I'm amarillo
     And I'll never know when I hit the ground
